Counterfeit 1943's? 0

[TooGoodToBeTrue]

Found these in a deceased relatives collection.  Not magnetic and overweight.  People seem to be able to be able to spot fakes so easily on here so figured I would post to get thoughts.  Fun to dream!  PS - No experience at all other than google searches...be kind

Sorry but both are fakes.

Counterfeit coins, no doubt.

Just having a Red Book would have enabled you to identify them, as the specified weight for a 1943 Bronze cent is 3.11g (however astronomically unlikely it would be to find one in the wild).

they are counterfeits  just look how mushy the designs and lettering are   it was a dream.

They both look counterfeit. Both coins seem to be out of round and in my opinion appear to be cast pot metal with artificial toning.

Respect for being realistic about the probabilities.
